AER 028EP
|
The Tuff City Kids know exactly how to juggle with different styles, until they come up with a fresh new sound that transforms an ordinary rave into an unforgettable happening. In this case they are mixing real performed kraut rock drums, '90s proto trance-balearic strings and an unexpectedly new, enthusiastic way of working with Alter Ego's trademark melody hook. Their 808 electro-remix for the track "Gate 23" is keeping to the premise of the legendary New York punk rock band The Ramones, that the music has to be the pill itself.

AER 027EP
|
Alter Ego (Roman Flügel and Jörn Elling Wuttke) present the first vinyl single on their own Alter Ego Recordings. Drawing on their entire back catalog, their label is dedicated to classic material, previously unreleased material, forgotten gems, and brand-new remixes. This 12" contains two Alter Ego classics remixed by Luke Slater in 1993 and 1994. His remix of "Soulfree" employs a Basic Channel-style sound design with dubbed chords and a full-bodied bassline. His slamming remix of "Lyrcra" has been in the bags of Sven Väth and Andrew Weatherall; its cascades of flanged sounds drift in and out alongside no-nonsense drums and percussion.
